    • Fielding grounders
      Encarnacion-Strand (wrist) was on the field Tuesday fielding ground balls, Mark Sheldon of MLB.com reports.

      Advice: Encarnacion-Strand's right hand remained in a protective cast while he fielded solely with his left glove hand. This was his first form of baseball activity since being diagnosed with right ulnar styloid fracture on the inside of his hand near the wrist May 8. His return timeline remains at some point in June, but a clearer picture should emerge after Encarnacion-Strand undergoes a follow-up exam scheduled for June 5, the four-week mark of his projected 4-to-6 week recovery.

    • Grabs first hits, steal of season
      Wisely went 2-for-4 with one RBI and one stolen base in Thursday's 7-6 win over the Pirates.

      Advice: Wisely's playing time has been sparse, but he went 0-for-5 with three strikeouts and one RBI over his first five major-league games of the season. He got the start at shortstop Thursday and delivered with a multi-hit effort, as well as his first steal of the campaign. The utility man hit .175 with a .498 OPS, two home runs and two steals over 131 plate appearances in the majors last year. Wisely can cover the middle infield and all three outfield spots, but it's unlikely he comes anywhere near steady playing time in 2024. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 8:12 pm
    • Kimbrel picks up 10th save Thursday
      Craig Kimbrel picked up the save against the White Sox on Thursday.

      Advice: With the bases loaded and a five-run lead in the ninth inning, Orioles manager Brandon Hyde went to Yennier Cano for what was an unconventional save opportunity. Cano hit Andrew Vaughn and allowed a two run single to Gavin Sheets to make it a two-run game. After striking out Zach DeLoach, Cano was removed in favor of Kimbrel, who got Andrew Benintendi to pop into a double play. The save was Kimbrel’s 10th of the season and his third since returning to the closer’s role. Rotoworld Yesterday, 8:06 pm
    • Launches homer Thursday
      Ramos went 2-for-4 with a solo home run in Thursday's 7-6 win over the Pirates.

      Advice: Ramos has hit safely in his last five games, going 7-for-22 (.318) with both of his homers for the year in that span. The outfielder is batting .296 through 14 contests since taking over for Michael Conforto (hamstring) as the Giants' starting left fielder. Ramos has added nine RBI, seven runs scored, one stolen base and three doubles across 58 plate appearances. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 8:05 pm
    • Homers in third straight game
      Chapman went 2-for-5 with a three-run home run in Thursday's 7-6 win over the Pirates.

      Advice: Chapman's swing is rounding into form -- he's got a homer in three straight games, and he's hitting .405 (17-for-42) with six walks during an 11-game on-base streak. The third baseman's blast Thursday sparked the Giants' eighth-inning rally. He's up to a .249/.313/.440 slash line with eight homers, 27 RBI, five stolen bases and 33 runs scored through 50 contests overall. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 8:02 pm
    • Pham has three-hit game Thursday
      Tommy Pham went 3-for-4 with a double, a walk, two runs scored and an RBI against the Orioles on Thursday.



      Advice: Pham continues to produce out of the leadoff spot for Chicago. His average is up to .333 on the season. He’s been one of the best pickups of the season considering he started the year without a team.

    • Rutschman knocks in three Thursday
      Adley Rutschman went 2-for-5 with 3 RBI against the White Sox on Thursday.



      Advice: Rutschman had an RBI single in the third inning to tie the game and a two-run single in the sixth inning to put the Orioles up 7-2. He’s putting together another nice season with a .299 average and 31 RBI on the year.

    • Mountcastle has four-hit game Thursday
      Ryan Mountcastle went 4-for-5 with a double and two runs scored against the White Sox on Thursday.



      Advice: Mountcastle scored on Jorge Mateo’s three-run home run in the fourth inning and on an Adley Rutschman home run in the sixth inning. The four hits marked a nice bounce back game for Mountcastle, who had been slumping. The Orioles have a deep group of hitters to choose from, but he should stay in the lineup as long as he continues to hit.

    • Clevinger allows five in loss Thursday
      Mike Clevinger allowed five runs in 4 2/3 innings and took the loss against the Orioles on Thursday.



      Advice: Clevinger allowed an RBI single to Adley Rutschman in the third inning before allowing two home runs in the fourth inning. Anthony Santander hit a solo home run to start the inning. After back-to-back two out singles by Ryan Mountcastle and Cedric Mullins, Jorge Mateo hit a three-run home run to put the Orioles ahead 5-2. Clevinger hasn’t completed five innings in any of his four starts this season. His ERA is up to 6.75 on the season. The 33-year-old right-hander is scheduled to face the Blue Jays at home next week.
